Ryan Gordon, the programmer for the Mac version of Unreal Tournament 2003, noted some additions that will be included in the final release of the game. These additions include FSAA (Full-Screen Anti-Aliasing) along with a umod installer for installing mods. He also notes, for those who haven't heard, that the Mac version will included both bonus packs that are available for the game.
Here's his post on FSAA:

Just added Full Screen Anti-Aliasing (FSAA) support to the OpenGL renderer for the Mac players to use. Looks sweet, didn't really hurt the framerate on a GeForce4 for the brief testing I gave it, either.

It won't be available via the UI, but you can enable it in the .ini files and tweak it from the console. This is deliberate; not only can the UI not change at this point without breaking network compatibility with Linux and Windows (it's defined in the data files), but I really don't want people screwing with it unless they know what they're doing.

UMOD installation: UT2003/osx _will_ have a umod unpacker, but it's a command line hack that I wrote for the Linux users. I expect some sort of GUI frontend that spawns the command line version and parses its output will show up sooner or later (if you are interested and can code something that doesn't suck very quickly, email me and maybe we can even get it on the retail disc with your name in the manual and stuff).
